Yet another example of some rather extreme architecture, this time found in China. Though the building itself looks relatively sound, one has to wonder what kind of nuisances are present from living so close to the highway, though there is a more pressing question raised by the building’s construction…
Just which was built first to secure this overhang, the apartment or the highway? In either case we have to wonder what was going through the minds of the architects involved.

hey, that’s where i live =(
dad? is that u?
woot?
It is obvious that the apartment was built first. It is almost impossible to build the house after the bridge is built. It only shows how reckless these bridge designers are, ignoring the existing housing arround.
It looks like a neighborhood in an old JetSetRadio game. Actually, it looks perfect for an action scene.
Having my balcony as the neighborhood bus stop would get old after awhile.
Doesn't look too dangerous. Maybe potentially dangerous but it depends on if there's been a history of crashes there and what the speed limit is.
That family would have to install steel bars on their windows if they don't want to get robbed...
There's nothing to rob though. :X
This is something normal everywhere you go, even in Malaysia. The developers are just selfish individuals who only cares about making money and couldn't care if they cause problems for others. I mean even my area is turning into chaos with highways and apartments under construction everywhere! Just to think that my place used to be an oil palm plantation some 20+ years ago....

BUILDING OR HIGHWAY FIRST?
yet another mystery to solve...
When I was in Japan, I saw something similar to this.
must be some awesome precision engineering, those Chinese engineers have master the art of designing and building a structure within 0.001mm of error.
Melamine dairies, explosive pressure chair, haystack manhole cover, and now this...? Are they really expecting people to die due to cheaply made stuffs? I don't want to believe it but it seemed the rumour about China trying to put people to death as much as possible for organ "donations" is possibly true..
at least, if you can park just outside, it's pretty convenient. Jump from the terrace into your car.
I'd still take this over the NIMBY attitude that most Americans have -- they'd rather let any potential for efficiency and economic growth choke in traffic congestion. They'd also rather let people die in crashes at overcapacity interchanges (cf. the I-95/395/495 "Springfield Interchange" south of Washington DC) than give up a few feet of driveway/lawn or have their precious aesthetic views encroached upon.
I wonder if the highway was there first or the building. xp
Japanese building: freeresearcher.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/gate_tower.jpg
Lmao, i dont want to imagine if someone sits on the balcony and a big truck just crashes right through it, i bet the building would collapse.
Fastest way to commit suicide :p
XD
Win.
Reminds me of a building in Japan where the highway goes right throught it.
I can see myself standing there waving at people lol
can see myself standing there showing my ass to people wwwww
Does the sight of that building gets me erotic in my erogenous zone?
hey, that’s where i live =(
<_<;
Yeah yeah, we know, you live there >_>
I lol'd.
If the traffic is consistently like that displayed in the pictures, it's not a habitual problem.
Looks like an invitation to a new type of crime, lol
The people who broke into that balcony would probably be moved to give instead of take due to the living condition of the occupants.
hardcore...just hardcore...
It must be nice to wake up every morning to the smell of exhaust fumes. Life span for people living there <=50years or ~3min.
You certainly won't wish to live long if you were there..
hey, that’s where i live =(
hey, that's where i live =(
hey, that's where i live =(
xxxxxxxxtreme!
lol, if you need a phone to call for an emergency just jump onto the belcany, or ninja leap off it into the passerger seat of a passing car.
I think the problem is stopping all the people from the highway from ninja leaping INTO your balcony and into your house.
LOL! "Belcany"!!
Forget about "belcany," seems like a nice place to lounge around watching passing cars and taking a seep of tea in the afternoon :D
what the fuck is a belcany, it's spelled balcony like Anonymous 07:42 04/07/2009 did.
And there's a house causing a backup on the 405...
The Alaskan Way Viaduct in Seattle cuts the corner of one building so close that the building actually sticks several inches into the shoulder of the road. It's kind of freaky to drive by.
If that cloth just happened to fall off and covered a car's windscreen..
That would be indeed unfortunate and it's no laughing matter either specially if the driver is inexperienced.
if that aprentment hapend to have a femail with panties drying on it
Granny panties, large enough to cover the windscreen.
You made me lold
